He is a great recruiter, but your wrong about his coaching, and your premise that he should win every year. It's not easy to win the national championship. One bad game and your done. If you go back and check out most national champions, you'll find a lot of them are teams loaded with juniors and seniors. In other words, experience. Louisville seldom recruits the top players out of highschool, but goes after players more toward the middle of the pack that will stay in school for 3 or 4 years. Yet, Louisville is almost always in the hunt for a national championship. Calapari's teams are usually loaded with freshmen, and sophmores, with an occasional junior. So every year he has to find a way to take some of the best players in the country, and get them to play team basketball. Duke is another school that's comfronted with that problem on a yearly basis, but not as badly as Kentucky.
My point is, almost every year that Calapari has been the head coach at Kentucky he'g gotten his team into the final four, or the championship game. Last year, I said that the one team that scared me for Kentucky was Wisconsin. They matched up well, and they had a more experienced team. And wa la, Wisconsin beat Kentucky. If Kentucky had gotten to that final game with Duke, I think Kentucky would have beaten Duke. Sometimes it's all about matchups.
Edit: By the way, I don't want Calapari for our head coach. Plus, I doubt he's even interested. He has a great gig at Kentucky where he's revered. Why throw all that away to coach a team that has been doing nothing but losing for the last 8 or 9 years.
